As it says 'This car was built for serious competition use' so you will have to maintain it to the standard to which it has been accustom

i understand its going to need frequent services, but to put it into perspective i will probably cover 6k a year in this car and im not the sort of driver that hammers it everywhere, do you think this car will be suitable for day to day use without blowing up every couple of months?
